Hello,


I have vey little background in Museum Archives, but I am ver interested
in the following:
1.      Have museums started to translate their paper-based accession
records into electronic systems? What problems do staff encounter with
electronic records?

2.      If so, which ones?  Do they have uniform standards?  For example,
Libraries have MARC systems, etc.

3.      If not, why not?

4.      What is the future of electronic records in museums?  Staff eager
to try more systems?

Please help,
Jane
